Nah, I'm not saying good bye to mylot. It would take a really good reason for me to give this site up and so far I haven't found that good reason yet, so I'm still staying.
I have said good bye to a few of my online friends though because I believe that they have made my life so complicated and they made me confused what friendship means. For them friendship means having benefits which i think defeats the real meaning of it. So i have said goodbye to some of them. I said some which means i have kept some behind.
I did some cleaning up on my messengers and i was polite enough to tell them i have to delete them. Some were sad of course but they do understand me.

Hi toni,
Wow you're just so brave. You did a pretty tough decision. It ain't easy to do it too. I can't imagine doing it though. Why? Because maybe, I am a people-pleaser. I don't want to disappoint people. I admire you for doing so.
Sad part though for those included in the list. I haven't received my notification from you so I would assume I ain't included? LOL. Just in case I am, just take it slow on me. LOL.
About mylot, yeah, it would take a very good reason to say GOODBYE to mylot. I too ain't leaving this site, it's more a part of my online life now. :)
God bless you my friend. Have a great day! :)

Definitely you are not on the list friend hahaha. I just don't like people who would insist that i should join them on their sites because we are friends or they would continually ask favor and they would insist because we are friends. I even had one online friend who asked me to cheat because he insisted that i'm his friend. Wow, see how they distort the meaning of friendship, or maybe they don't have any idea at all what that means.

hitoniganzon to me friends with benefits is a dangerous combination leading finally to broken hearts on one side, and false sadness on the other. Someone will always get hurt as benefits grow boring to the benefitee and he moves on to newer pastures. Plain friends who are really friends can last a lifetime.

Yes. True friends would be worth keeping than those who stay for the sake of benefits.

Yes but i think they wouldn't get hurt being on the list as they don't really intend to be real friends. They just needed someone to be their downlines on their earning sites and after that they don't communicate with you anymore. Another thing is, I cannot understand people from another country who would strangely utter the words i love you, when they knew the fact that i am married and we barely know each other. So those were the people that i had to delete.

Hi toni
I almost jumped seeing the headline of your discussion... but thanks that you are not going anywhere
For the friends on the IM and also other places... well at times the cleaning does become necessary and I hope that the new ones who join your list there stay there longer and just because they turn out to be great friends...
Saying/Bidding farewell at times brings sadness and unpleasantess around but one has to continue this as it might help someway.

Hello Sid,
Well I only deleted those who were asking for personal favors and would insist that i have to do it for the sake of friendship. They even asked me to cheat for the sake of friendship. I cannot continue such friendship at all, if it's ever called like that. I have chosen those people who really knew the meaning of friendship even if it's just an online thing and you are one of them.
